About this property

Sunsets-Waterfront-5Star-Private Trails-BATH Towels-2 day minimum Winter Escape!

Contact Becky! During Peak Season Boyer Point Cottage books Saturday to Saturday, we have a 2 or 3-day minimum depending on off-peak season month.

A quick Note: We recently changed the name of Boyer Bay House to BOYER POINT COTTAGE – same everything, just a name change.

Another quick note: VRBO has started using AI to update items such as amenities or attractions nearby without the Hosts approval. If you are interested in specific amenities please ask me (Becky) and I will confirm. The other day VRBO said I had a pool at our Boyer Log Cabin (I wish). We want our guests to have a great stay with no surprises or disappointments, so if you see a Pool listed anywhere, sorry, we don't have one - thanks!

We sleep 8 humans (no exceptions). Sit inside our screened porch and watch the sunsets or take our aluminum stairs down to a rock-shelf shoreline (see pics). Take our 2 Kayaks out for a paddle (seasonal) - (do not leave them unsupervised, you don't want them floating away! Please use the kayak stand located at water's edge, see pic). View the Niagara Escarpment - this was formed when glaciers gouged out soft shale and left harder dolomite exposed. These glaciers gave shape to the Great Lakes. You can see some of the escarpment in the pictures on the site. We may or may not have a dock; it depends if it's able to be installed (weather and worker shortage are major factors). You can still access the rock-shelf shoreline using the aluminum stairs.

We SUPPLY BATH TOWELS AND LINENS (many properties do not or they charge you for a "linen package") don't take up precious suitcase space! We also have walking trails! Take in all the nature you need on your own private walking trails; located directly across the street from Boyer Point Cottage - we have 14-acres which are all yours.

Boyer Point Cottage has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in total. You will find Rough Sawn Cedar throughout the house. On the main level, we have a full bathroom and 2 bedrooms: both with queen beds. The front room area has 2 couches, 2 chairs, Roku TV, and the dining area (refer to pictures); from the front room, you access our screened porch through french doors to sit outside and view the beautiful sunsets every evening. Upstairs we have a nice sitting area with a couch and another Roku TV (movies and DVD player). Upstairs you will find 2 bedrooms: 1 bedroom with a queen bed and 1 bedroom which has 2 twins, a full bathroom is upstairs as well. You get a great breeze off the Bay - open your windows at night and listen to the waves. Outside we have a fire pit and chairs for your use. At the top of our aluminum stairs there is a small outside patio area with 2 new benches, sit there with your glass of wine and soak it in if you don't want to take the stairs. We have a CHARCOAL grill for outside use.

Located in the perfect area of Egg Harbor, Boyer Point Cottage is on the point of Horseshoe Bay with expansive Bay views and amazing sunsets. We are approximately 0.3 miles from Murphy Park which is a 15-acre lakefront park that includes a sand beach, boat launch, and walking pier. The town of Egg Harbor is approximately 4 miles away and is the favorite Door County town for many travelers with the municipal beach, harbor park and restaurants.

We do supply basic white cotton bath towels; it's not an unlimited supply like hotels - you will most likely do a laundry load of towels if you're staying a week.

We are sorry to report, we have stopped allowing you to bring your family dog to this property. We had trouble with guests not adhering to our dog rules (letting them sleep on the beds, furniture and barking all day long on the porch). Being a good neighbor and a good guest is very important to us.

To give you an idea of how we manage our properties, you can view Boyer Beach House, sleeps 4 (VRBO #505916, Sturgeon Bay, Lake Michigan sandy beach) and Boyer Log Cabin, sleeps 6 (VRBO #1214889, Egg Harbor, 40 acres) read our reviews, we like to make people happy! Contact Becky with any questions you may have! We hope you don't expect the Four Seasons Hotel; we try our best and hope you enjoy your stay! Blue Chair Capital offers a 5% discount off the rental amount to military members and veterans; please present your proper ID.

Relaxing Weekend with Family

Great place to stay! The location was perfect to explore the whole peninsula - nothing was too far of a drive. Amenities were perfect for our family of five with young children and teens. Communication with owners was easy and gave great tips on things to see.

A perfect home away from home to celebrate the Thanksgiving Holiday! Ideal location, for the Door’s holiday festivities! It has a lot of charm, especially the second floor family room (cozy for family movie nights!). And, able to enjoy the magnificent sunsets with campfire, bayside!

Great Door County getaway

To date, this has been our favorite VRBO. It is a very homey and comfortable place. Clean. They had the house well stocked with all sorts of amenities. The view it has is amazing! The kayaks and the pier were great and having our own piece of shore was a lot of fun. We enjoyed the hiking trails across the road. Every question we emailed Becky was answered right away. It was a fantastic experience.

Great Location

Boyer Bay House is wonderfully located and private. The house is well-equipped and the beds are comfortable. We had a couple of minor issues with bathroom exhaust fans but not a big deal. Overall this is one of the best VRBOs we have ever stayed in, and Becky is a very accessible host. We loved our stay!

A Perfect Family Vacation Home

We had a great time during our recent trip to Door County and we particularly enjoyed our vacation home rental. Becky is very fast at responding to any questions we had and the home was very comfortable and met all of our needs. We enjoyed sunsets over the bay each evening and the secluded feeling of the home. I highly recommend booking a stay here! Thanks, Becky!

Fabulous location

I can't say enough good things about Boyer Bay House ! We have stayed there twice now and absolutely love it. We were greeted by fragrant blooming lilacs which set the tone for a wonderful week in Door County. What could be better than spending time around a fire enjoying amazing sunsets ove the bay? The house is very clean and well-equipped, and best of all, Becky is great to work with as a host. Excellent all around! Would book again in a heartbeat!

Great stay!

We were fortunate to be able to carve out several days at the Boyer Bay House with our family, the week before Memorial Day. Eight of us adults, spanning 3 generations, had a marvelous time. The house is beautifully situated, with space for enjoying the outdoors---and beyond comfortable, with all the conveniences and comforts of home, and plenty of places to relax and enjoy the amenities. Becky was wonderful to work with, and we are already looking forward to a return next year.

The view

Loved our 3 days staying at Boyer House. The house is situated on a little higher elevation overlooking beautiful Lake Michigan. Steps will take you down to the water. We all loved sitting on the screened porch, listening to the water lapping, birds chirping and of course the view! House is comfortably furnished if for some reason you want to stay in. Loved it!

High School Friends Getaway (40 years after graduation!)

We had a wonderful time at Boyer House. Everything about it was perfect for us. The location, the accommodations, the amenities - all were excellent. Such a beautiful piece of property on the lake! The owners were so cooperative with us when we had to change the date from fall to spring. If we come back to the area we would definitely choose this house and location. Thanks Boyers!

Fabulous DC cabin

This cabin has a wonderful screened porch with a great fire pit area. We were able to see the northern lights looking over the bay. Small kitchen but had everything we needed. The stairs for the upstairs bedroom are steep but common for older homes. Becky was super easy to work with and responded almost immediately when we had a question before we checked in. We will definitely stay at this cute place the next time we return to Door County.

Beautiful property and a very relaxing retreat from our daily lives. The house was even better than described in the listing. We absolutely loved the screened-in porch. Becky readily answered our questions and the communication was excellent. She is a 5-star property manager. We were very grateful for her assistance. We hope to rent this property again.

Great Family Thanksgiving!

This is such a pretty place to stay. The view is gorgeous and it is convenient for exploring Door County. We were there for Thanksgiving so obviously no swimming, but we had a great time visiting all the small towns and state parks. It snowed on our last day there. Beautiful! Becky is a wonderful host. She is so easy to work with and went out of her way to answer questions and make accommodations for our family. Thank you so much!

Wonderful Door County Destination

Fantastic week at this lovely, quiet & comfy DC vacation home! New owners have put a lot of work into renovations and a lot of thought into creating a great vacation spot for guests. Home is clean and kitchen well-stocked for real cooking. Games, smart TV’s, movies, nice bed linens, new beds/furniture and a great layout with a bonus upstairs hangout room/den for the kids. But where it gets even better is outside - AMAZING lake views and sunsets, screened porch, fire pit, kayaks, lake toys, pier! Great biking, sandy beach just down the road that is dog-friendly and quiet. Loved our stay at the Bay House and would love to return.

Bliss by the bay!

We have stayed in many properties in Door County throughout the years. This was our best stay yet! The property easily accommodated multiple generations of our family, it retained classic feel & charm of Door County while still incorporating modern conveniences, and was in a great location! The house was extremely clean, exactly as described in terms of amenities, and the owner was very responsive before & during our stay! The neighborhood was quiet without being desolate and the screen porch was a highlight! It allowed us to enjoy the bay views & sounds no matter the weather or time of day! We hated to leave!

Serene and Scenic Spot

We feel fortunate to have found this spot for a week-long 6 person family getaway! The house was clean and cute, with thoughtful amenities. You couldn't beat the view of the water, especially at sunset, and the rocky shoreline down near the pier is very pretty. We were lucky enough to spot meteor showers and the Northern Lights from the backyard while we were there! The mosquitos were actually less bothersome there than they are where we live, but it was nice to have the screened-in porch regardless. The location is great because it's near enough to the town of Egg Harbor, the local public beach, and other places of interest to get there quickly, but also feels serene and private. The owner, Becky, provided us with lots of helpful information about the area prior to our visit as well. Thank you for the wonderful accommodations!
